Your guests are arriving in 1 hour, but is it all mess in
your house? Or quite simply, you want to clean everything quickly without
spending 3 hours? Don't worry, here is the guide that will save your life!
When I was still in school, I worked several summers as a
cleaning lady to make ends meet. Through this experience, I learned some great
tips to speed up cleaning. And today, I can tell you: YES, it is quite possible
to clean an ENTIRE medium-sized house in less than 1 hour! This takes work and
concentration. Not allowed to leaf through magazines you are putting away or
spend time looking at Facebook on your mobile. If you follow this guideline without
taking a pause, you too will have a shiny clean home in no time. Let's go!
Always Start at the Top
No matter what room you are cleaning, always start from the top.
Why? This way, dirt and dust will naturally fall on lower surfaces that you
will clean afterward. Start by cleaning the dust off your wall shelves. If you
have a ceiling fan, now is the time to have it. Then, dust the furniture and
other furnishings by deliberately letting the dust and dirt fall on the floor.
Only in the last step will you clean the floors and remove all the dirt and
dust in one fell swoop.

The Bedroom in 6 Min
Take out the bedsheets from the bed and put on clean sheets.
To avoid bending your back when changing the fitted sheet, lift the corner of
the mattress with one hand and insert the fitted sheet's corners with the
other. - Put away all the messy objects. If you're in a real hurry, but all of
these items in a small basket or plastic box, then put them out of sight in a
cupboard for storage at another time. - Wipe the furniture with a microfiber
cloth and anti-dust spray, always working from top to bottom.
The Bathroom in 7 Minutes
If you have several bathrooms or toilets at home, it is more
efficient to clean them all at once. Take a quick tour of all the bathrooms and
toilets first, then clear all the flat surfaces first. Then, spray surfaces and
showers/tubs with a homemade cleaner like this. Leave it on while you clean the
toilet. - Return to each bathroom and toilet to wipe down surfaces, rinse showers/tubs,
and clean mirrors. - To save time, clean the floors of your bathrooms
simultaneously as that of the kitchen.
The Living Room and the Dining Room in 7 Minutes
First, put away all messy items in cupboards and shelves. -
Starting from a corner of the room, walk around the room, and remove dust from
surfaces, always working from top to bottom. If you have blinds or ceiling
fans, clean them first. - Use the brush (the one with soft bristles) on your
vacuum cleaner to vacuum and clean sofas, armchairs, and any other
fabric-covered furniture. - As a final step, vacuum the living room, dining
room, and all carpeted and rugs in the house.
Cooking In 12 Min
Put all unclean dishes in the dishwasher and fill the sink
with hot soapy water. If the grates on your gas cooker also need cleaning, soak
them in hot soapy water. - Store untidy objects on worktops. - Dip a sponge in
the sink and wring it out to remove excess soapy water. With the sponge, wipe
down wall furniture, countertops, and any other surface, always working from
top to bottom. During this cleaning, rinse the sponge in the sink from time to
time: you will be amazed by the amount of dirt that comes out! Swipe the sponge
on your household appliances such as the oven and microwave to remove fingerprints.
Clean the grids of your gas stove in the sink and put them back in place. - As
the last step, clean the kitchen floor and all hard surfaces (floor, linoleum,
etc.) in the house.
All Floors of the House in 15 Min
When vacuuming, start at the back of the room and work
backward. This way, you can go faster and avoid ironing twice on the same
surfaces. By the way, if you are looking for a good vacuum cleaner, I have been
using this vacuum for three years, and I can tell you that it is the best that
I have ever had. I extremely recommend it if you have pets, because it is just
perfect for removing hair! - Do not sweep hard floors such as parquet. Instead,
use the vacuum cleaner with a brush suitable for hard floors. This is the best
way to clean the corners of rooms, where dust and pet hair tends to collect. It
avoids raising dust in the air before it falls to the ground. - A final
recommendation, there are also steam cleaners that can help you clean your
floors faster than with a traditional mop
